The Feast

Thankful for: one adorable indian boy

The Thursday before school was out for Thanksgiving Tucker's class celebrated with a breakfast feast! There were donuts, muffins, fruit, and most importantly (to Tuck at least) McDonalds Breakfast Burritos. He ate two and some fruit, no donuts...can you believe it????

The teachers sent home a letter requesting that you pick between one of two items. My note said syrup or breakfast casserole. I did the breakfast casserole since I didn't think many people would want to go to the trouble. Well, I'm not sure what one Mom's letter said, but that teacher received...

a BOX OF PANCAKE MIX!!

I'm not sure where that Mom thought the teacher would be fixing those pancakes!!

We all got a good laught outta that one.

Have a super evening.

Hugs, K

(ps. is that a crazy face that little girl is making or what!)

1st 9 Week's AWARDS

Tucker received the Perfect Attendance Award and Citizenship Award!

I have him trained well. All the other kids grab their ribbon and head back to their seat,

but not Tuck, he stops and smiles for Momma and the camera!

Keyto and Brando are also studying hard and doing well in school.

Keyto is in all PreAP classes so he has to work extra hard and study lots!

I have amazing boys don't I??

Scrapbook Layout

Noooo , not from me, but from Keyto!!

He had to do a Scrapbook layout for his Language Arts class about a pet.

I think he did a great job and so did his teacher because he got a 100!!

(Wally's not so cute right now after he drug himself thru a mud puddle under the fence

again last night to explore the neighborhood)

I am enjoying being home today because there weren't any sub jobs and because I have been fighting a sinus/hayfever issue (not an infection thank goodness) and barely have a voice from trying to get the attention of 6th graders on Monday and 1st graders yesterday! I am cleaning, getting ready for my BFF to be here tomorrow so we can hang out on Friday and for my Mom who is coming next week for Thanksgiving. Needless to say we are all so excited to see some familiar faces from home and spend some time with my Mom here at our home.

Hugs,

Belated Halloween

Even though I'm way late, I wanted to post some pictures of halloween.

Tucker was a Star Wars Clone this year.

We went Trick or Treating with his best buddy who lives a few blocks over.

Then it was to their house to raid the candy and for the adults to rest and eat!

Brando and Keyto stayed at the house to scare the Trick or Treaters and pass out candy.

This (below) is the Friday before at The Crafty Scrapper.
The downtown merchants pass out candy to all the little Trick or Treaters after school.
I worked and Brent brought the boys in to town to help and T or T!
It was lots of fun to see all the neat costumes and people we knew.

This is Tucker and Carolyn's son Denton. Denton was the cutest little old man!

Have a super Sunday!

Hugs, K

Surprise for you!

Keyto playing BASEBALL and the team winning a CHAMPIONSHIP!

I believe the tongue and pointing is another way of saying Ha! Ha! to his big brother!

One of his best buddies and all around great ball player, Jacob!

Way to Go!

Proud Papas and Best Buddies!

Keyto hasn't played baseball on a team since Spring 2007!

That was his last Little League team and right after we moved.

He has played only soccer and basketball since then.

Tim called Brent and asked if Keyto might be interested in filling in last weekend.

Keyto was so excited to see his friends and play ball with them.

He was in a great mood and had that cute smile on his face all week, except for the one day he was home from school with a temperature. But, luckily it wasn't the flu!

His buddies from home are the best!
Enjoy the pictures!

Hugs,

He's not very smart

but we love him anyway! Silly Dog! With all the rain, he has been digging under the fence and getting out. One day, when Brent drove up in the driveway this is what he found...Wally...STUCK! Under the fence. Whining. Silly Dog! It was interesting to watch Brent and Brando get him back through :)

On another day, Brent drove up and Wally was just sitting on the front porch waiting for him. We have also walked out into the garage to find him sitting in his kennel. We keep the garage door open a little when we are home so Dudley can go in and out and get some air in there. That is also where we keep Wally's kennel for when it is cold or raining or he is just being a sissy and can con Brando into letting him in it even it it's just a little cool outside with NO rain.

You should see the set up Brent has got going along the east fence to keep him in! Everytime Wally escapes the set up gets more elaborate and complicated.

Sorry so long in posting. Can't believe it's been almost a month. I've been so busy and weekends have been kinda slow with all the rain. When we have downtime, I don't have many pictures, but then when we are busy with sports and activities I have pictures but no time to post them! I do have some great ones to post this week though so stay tuned!!

Have a super Monday! I will be subbing at Tuck's school with the 3 year olds! I had two classes (each day am and pm) of 22- 4 year olds on Thursday and Friday. It was too cute.

Hugs,

K
